Ingredients (serves 2):
-200g diced chicken breast
-Cajun seasoning
-Salt to taste
-Pepper to taste
-200g broccoli cut into small florets
-2 tsp garlic puree
-Diced white onion
-120g dry pasta
-180ml reduced fat single cream
-Crumbled chicken stock cube
-100ml water
-25g parmesan grated
-Fresh parsley chopped
Method:
❤️Start by patting the chicken dry and then seasoning with a tsp cajun seasoning, salt and pepper rub in throughly.
❤In a hot frying pan, fry off the chicken until cooked. If the pan starts to brown add a splash of white wine vinegar (or water if you do not have any to hand)
❤️Once the chicken has cooked, remove from the pan and add the broccoli to the same pan for 4-5- minutes until slightly browned. Add 50ml water and cover for a further few minutes until the broccoli has softened slightly. NOTE - if you don't like a bite to you broccoli par boil first and then fry leaving out the last step.
❤️Remove the broccoli from the pan, add the garlic and onion frying for a few minutes.
❤️Meanwhile, boil the pasta in a large pan of salted water.
❤️Once the onion has softened, add in the cream seasoning with salt, pepper, crumbled stock cube, a tsp of cajun seasoning and 100ml water. Put over medium to high heat for 5-10 minutes until slightly reduced (it will thicken when stirring through parmesan and leaving to stand).
❤️Add 20g parmesan, stir before adding the pasta, chicken and broccoli into the pan.
❤️Combine thoroughly before serving and garnishing with the remaining parmesan and fresh parsley.
